Unspecified vulnerability in the Intel Trusted Execution Technology (TXT) SINIT Authenticated Code Modules (ACM) before 1.2, as used by the Intel QM77, QS77, Q77 Express, C216, Q67 Express, C202, C204, and C206 chipsets and Mobile Intel QM67 and QS67 chipsets, when the measured launch environment (MLE) is invoked, allows local users to bypass the Trusted Execution Technology protection mechanism and perform other unspecified SINIT ACM functions via unspecified vectors.
CVE-2013-5740 is a security vulnerability that . Impacting 10 products from intel, from intel, from intel and 7 others, organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
Documented in 2013, this vulnerability occurred amid the cloud computing expansion era, where traditional network perimeter security models were being reevaluated. Organizations were transitioning from isolated infrastructure to interconnected systems, creating new attack surfaces that vulnerabilities like this could exploit.

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For intel's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
